Note that my Romano-Persian lang has undergone another name change:
'''Baazraamani''' < VÓCEM RÓMÁNICAM.

Geminate consonants are treated as if initial.

== Special contexts ==

:'''liV, leV    >     yV'''
:'''tiV, teV    >     sV'''
:'''diV, deV    >     zV'''
:'''niV, neV, miV, meV      >     nyV'''
:'''riV, reV    >     zhV /ž/'''
:'''ll    >     y'''
:'''-cul-, -gul- > ly > y'''

:'''viC   >     guC'''
:'''-Cicum#     >     Ci#'''
:'''> -ellum > -oy > ey'''
:'''vo    >     u'''
:'''al,el,ol > u / _C''' e.g. '''altus > ud'''.
:'''ôl,ul,ûl > u / _C'''.
:'''il,îl,êl > i / _C'''.

In clusters '''l'''  becomes /r/: '''Cl > Cr''' e.g. '''clarus > kharor'''.

Latin '''rd''' > '''l''', e.g. '''ardore > alar'''.

It will be seen that the consonant changes are essentially an outline of the changes between Old and Middle Persian with an occasional Old Iranian or Romance feature rearing its head. They are of course subject to future refinement.

The transcription '''ž''' for ''ry'' is actually somewhat inaccurate.  Lemontaigner as Râman writers choose this transcription in order to more clearly distinguish ''ry'' ژ from ''ri'' ري in Arabic script.
